Matthew 26:2
Matthew 26:2: “Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.”
It is important to note that Jesus was crucified on the very day of the passover feast, at the very time that the passover lambs were being killed. Jesus was our sacrificial lamb – His death atoned for our sins. He was the fulfillment of that festival.
The timing of this was not an accident. The passover itself pointed to Christ.
